I'm trying to create a UBCD on a USB from my mac for a Windows 7 PC but the PC wont boot from the USB.I have the bios set to boot from the usb, and I've been booting successfully to Ubuntu live and windows7 recovery via usb.

To make the USB I did the following:

I converted the iso to an img:

Code:

hdiutil convert -format UDRW -o ./ubcd533.img ./ubcd533.iso

I inserted my USB, got the disk number(5) and then unmounted it. I tried to overwrite the drive via:

Code:

dd if=./ubcd533.img.dmg of=/dev/rdisk5 bs=1m

I've had luck with this method making my ubuntu live usb and the windows7 recovery usb, but no dice with UBCD.
